my thought after seeing Crystal Skull was "THIS was the script they chose?"

like, any of the thousands of fan scripts written in the intervening years would've been better. how did no adult in the room shut it down? how did Harrison Ford not say "this is shit, do it over?"

does George Lucas have just an entire vault of pee tapes, one for each person in Hollywood?

Fate of Atlantis would have made such a good movie almost scene by scene.

I don't think you need pee tapes when you can literally shower them with gold.

Actually, that would be a proper use for all of the de-aging CGI and AI: give us a Fate of Atlantis with real life actors!

Or perhaps it's already possible today with some kind of style transfer where you feed in the game's screenshots...
